If you were able to assemble the stools in the first place, you can certainly smear an adhesive on the threads to keep them from loosening. A very, very simple fix.

There is an old cartoon of a cat that tries to prove itself to the house owner for it's keep. But eventually it realizes it can be lazy and get other cats to do it's mouse-ing. I haven't figured out to do the work, and get others to mouse for me.
That is the definition of laziness and bitching.

Tis a puzzlement.

Really, I am an ABBA fan.
It isn't the fixing, it is the frustration of having to tighten the screws every five nanoseconds.
These other "cures" presented to me I have not heard of.
1. Go to your local hardware shop or home improvement or DIY store.
2. Look for a product called 'Loctite' (it's very common and won't cost more than a few dollars).
3. Go home.
4. Find your allen wrench and remove the screws from the barstools.
5. Read the directions on the Loctite package.
6. Apply the Loctite as directed on the package.
7. Re-insert the screws.
8. Revel in the knowledge that your frustration over this has been solved.
Fuxxake, Brian.
